LANSING — Michigan State Police arrested a suspect they say broke into two vehicles parked at the governor's Lansing residence early Thursday morning and stole property.

The suspect was arrested Friday, State Police spokeswoman Shanon Banner said. The case has been sent to Ingham County prosecutors.

Banner could not provide details about the suspect or the stolen property. She declined to say whether Gov. Gretchen Whitmer or her family members were at the residence when the suspected crime occurred.

There is no evidence the suspect attempted to enter the home. Banner declined to say how the suspect entered the property.

"This is very much an active investigation," Banner said.

There is armed security on the premises at the governor's residence at all times. The property is a gated, ranch-style home in Lansing's Moores Park neighborhood.

Whitmer, her two daughters and her husband Marc Mallory moved into the residence after the election. Former Gov. Rick Snyder did not live in the home, but used it for official events.
